Bill Goldberg Talks Return to WWE for a Match at Wrestlemania XXVII

News

Here’s what Goldberg had to say:

“At this point, it’s not that I want to get back in the ring, but I have a 3�-year-old little boy, and what an experience for him to still buy an action figure with his daddy represented? The doors are kind of open to negotiation as far as a merchandising deal. If it leads to something else? It’s a wonderful day. It’s not something that I’m seeking out to do at 43 years old. But you know, Wrestlemania is next year in Atlanta. Hulk Hogan and I put 43,000 people in the Georgia Dome with three days’ notice. I’ve got a fairly big following in Atlanta. Is it out of the realm of possibility? I’d say no. If not, I’m totally content with the way I went out. To be able to get merchandise out there not only satiates the fans but hopefully there have been a lot of people wondering where my merchandise is. The reason why I want to do this is my boy; just trying to be a good father.”

If I were a mid-card heel like Carlito or Chavo Guerrero, I’d be wary of being the one squashed by Goldberg at that show, though I suppose it’s a great payday for not much work. Maybe a low level monster heel like Kozlov will be fed to him.
